i am interesting in this topic because i had delusions/dreams of putting a straight eight on the salt. turbocharged. in a bellytank/lakester frame. i have seen a Buick 6, but no Packards. a nine bearing would be my choice. the oiling system would have to go dry sump cause the Packard oiling is no good for this.I read "what would blow first " the rods i believe.
anybody have any more ideas i will read them.
a Packard gearheads delusion.
